EIP Designer: Bridging the Gap Between EA and Development

This article presents the EIP Designer project, an Eclipse-based tool for introducing integration patterns into an EA design, providing fluidity and continuity while filling the gap existing between EA practices and concrete software development.

W3C has recently announced that the HTML5 and Canvas 2D specifications are now “Candidate Recommendation”, meaning they are feature complete, and no more features are to be added before reaching the final Recommendation status by the end of 2014. Organizations can now confidently develop HTML5 and Canvas 2D tools without fearing that the specification might change over night. For the following 18 months, W3C will focus on interoperability and testing in order to make sure HTML5 is implemented compatibly across browsers, servers, email clients, and other web tools.
